‘...simply the best 'field-guide' to environmental philosophy
anywhere. Dale Jamieson has assembled an insightful set of chapters
- the topics are well chosen, the writing is crisp, and the
thinking is compelling. The volume is also historically informed,
theoretically rich, multicultural, and practical - all especially
appreciated strengths.’ William S. Lynn, The Hastings

scholarship, this volume reflects well the many ways in which
environmental philosophy not only pervades, but is also touched by,
ancient and modern concerns.’ Paul Waldau, Tufts
